Facial Rejuvenation Treatment India

Types of Facial Rejuvenation Treatment India

Your doctor will carefully plan and select procedures for facial rejuvenation as per your needs. If you need volume enhancement for facial rejuvenation, the doctor may choose a fat injection. If improving skin appearance is the goal, then collagen injection will be given.

01. Fat injections - With the help of a small needle, the doctor will extract fat from other areas of the body and then transfer it to the desired region. It is the preferred choice of treatment as it involves injecting own fat, which further reduces the risk of reactions. This procedure is also known as microlipoinjection and is used to recontour the face, reduce crows feet, frown lines, smile lines, and more. It is also used to add volume to depressed scarred areas of the body. It is not permanent and requires effective maintenance. One can consider fat transfer injections if facial areas are sunken, want permanent correction, improve body contour or improve scars.

02. Collagen Injections - Collagen is a natural protein present in the body and supports the skin. It can be extracted from animal-like pigs or cows, or from the patients own tissue. Doctors prefer extracting it from the patients tissue to reduce the reactions. There are two types of collagens:

2.1. Bellafill - is a type of collagen filler approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) to treat scars. It is made of bovine collagen, PMMA beads (polymethyl methacrylate), or microspheres.

2.2. Sculptra - is a collagen stimulator and is made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). Its results last for 2 years or until PLLA is broken down.

Collagen Benefits

01. Stimulating the bodies collagen production.

02. Improving the appearance of hollow scars.

03. Plump up the lips, adding volume.

04. Reduce wrinkles from nose, eyes, mouth, and forehead

Collagen Side Effects

The doctor will do a skin test and monitor it for several days before injecting collagen so serious reactions are rare. However, there can be collagen side effects, such as:

01. Skin redness

02. Skin discomfort

03. Infection at the injection site

04. Skin rashes

05. Scars

06. Lumps

07. The wound on the face

Before Procedure

The doctor will examine your health conditions and take pictures of your face. It is important to discuss allergies, medicines, and skin products you are using with the doctor. Moreover, you need to avoid aspirin and other blood-thinner medicines. Remove all makeup before the procedure. The doctor may use local or topical anesthesia before the collagen or fat injections procedure. Additionally, stop smoking at least 6 weeks before the procedure and stay hydrated.

During Procedure

The face will be cleaned with an antibacterial cleanser and anesthesia will be given to numb the area. Marking with a pen is done on the targeted areas. There are several ways to inject collagen:

01. Serial Puncture Technique - Small punctures are made with the needle along the targeted area and a small amount of collagen or fat will be inserted at all puncture points.

02. Linear Threading - The full-length needle will be inserted in the targeted area and collagen or fat will be injected slowly through the needle.

03. Fanning Technique - The needle is introduced at a single site and is passed several times in different directions without retrograding from the skin. The procedure takes only a few minutes and you can go home after the procedure.

After Procedure

Once the procedure is done, medical staff will clean your face and apply ice or soothing ointment. However, you may feel some pain once the anesthesia wears off. Your face will be swollen and bruised and signs will resolve within a few days. If you are concerned about bruising and swelling, talk to your doctor.
